Introducing Semaglutide

We have partnered with a compounding pharmacy to provide all our clients with their semaglutide medication. The pharmacy will ship your medication to you. Shipping times vary throughout the year, it typically takes 2 business days to receive your medication.

Please contact the pharmacy for this information. Once we send the prescription to them, we do not have any way of viewing the status of your medication.

Your medication should be stored in the refrigerator when not in use. If you happen to be traveling, it does NOT need to be packed on ice. Just place the medication in the refrigerator when you arrive at your destination.

It is a once-weekly injection. You may take it in the morning, afternoon, or evening—whichever time works best with your schedule.

Don’t panic! The medication has a 4-day window of time in which to take your dose and stay on track with your dosing regimen. If you are 5 days past your dosing date, then the recommendation is to skip that current week and resume the next week on your regular dosing day.

Our NP weight loss specialist will go through the injection instructions in detail and also guide you in how to inject properly.

Semaglutide is an FDA-approved medication and is clinically-tested, stimulant-free, and non-habit forming. In a recent clinical trial, less than 5% of people discontinued GLP-1 medications because of side effects. Nausea is the most common, and this has been shown to typically resolve over the first weeks of being on the medication.
